How many phones have a display with better than 800:1 contrast ratio[1]? All the resolution in the world doesn't matter if you can't actually see it. The Nexus One, in comparison, has a 100,000:1 contrast ratio[2].

- slyn 16y ago"All the resolution in the world doesn't matter if you can't actually see it." A 100,000:1 contrast ratio doesn't do you any good when you can't even see anything in sunlight. OLED may give a great contrast ratio, but any direct light (ex: being outside during the day, a common usage senario) means that you can't see anything anyways.
